Hello and welcome to another Bribo how to play it.
The song today is a lot different than what I usually do.
Waiting on a Friend, the Rolling Stones.
This is from back in the 60's.
Let's look at Miley Cheat.
[A]
There's an intro.
[C] I just play a [Ab] C then [Fm] a F.
Then the right hand you can do [C] a
[F] [C]
[F] piano intro on the notes.
[G]
[Ab] [A] Let's start with F [F] here.
[C]
[F] [C]
[F] [C]
[F] [C]
[F] [G] So you can do an intro and an ending.
It's the same thing.
Now a little farther down where the verse starts is A minor.
[G]
Pretty much in the key of A minor.
[A] [Eb]
[Am] I'm just playing chords.
Whatever [Ab] comes into my head [F] at the moment.
[G]
[C]
Just like that.
There is a bridge.
We'll look a little farther down.
[A] [F]
I'm just waiting.
[C]
Again I'm [Ab] doing this thing on the left hand.
Playing a root and a fifth.
[C] It's pretty [F] simple.
[C] [F]
[C] It goes [F] into a solo.
[C]
[F]
[C] You can do that again instead of the sax [A] playing.
[Ab]
Now that we've looked at that.
[A]
You might notice I have a new keyboard.
First one in a few years.
It's a Kirkwell [Gb] SP6.
I like it.
I'm playing program number one on it.
[G] Nine foot grand piano.
No drum today.
Just me.
Let's give her a go.
One, two, three, [C] four.
[F]
[C] [F]
[C] [F]
[C] [F]
[C] [F]
[C] [F]
[A] Watching girls [F] passing by.
[G] Ain't the latest [C] thing.
[G] I'm just standing in a [C] doorway.
I'm
[G] just trying to make some [C] sense.
[Am] Out of these girls [F] passing by.
[G]
The tales they tell [C] of men.
[G]
Not waiting [C] on a lady.
[G]
I'm just waiting on a friend.
[A] A smile [F] relieves a heart that dreams.
[G] Remember what I [C] said.
[G] I'm not waiting on [C] a lady.
[G] I'm just waiting on [C] a friend.

[F] [C]
[F] [A] Don't need a [F] poor.
Don't need no good.
[G] Don't need no virgin [C] priest.
[G] But I need someone I can [C] cry to.
[G] I need someone who will protect.
[Am] Making love [F] and breaking hearts.
[G] It's a game for [C] you.
But [G] I'm not waiting on a [C] lady.
I'm just waiting [C] on a friend.
[F] Just waiting [C] on a friend.
[F] Just waiting on [C] a friend.
[F] I'm just waiting on a [C] friend.
[F]
[F] [C]
[C] So [D] there was an oldie waiting on a friend at Rolling Stones.
Yeah, I'm trying to learn some [Bb] stones, a bunch of it.
So I hope you enjoyed [F] that.
Please try this at home.
You don't have to be a professional to do it.
